Hu Lei was the first to run away, followed closely by Ma Gan. The giant bear slapped Huang Wu with his palm, but the man did not dodge in a hurry and hurriedly raised his knife to block it.

Unexpectedly, the monster slightly changed the path of its arm swing, and slapped his right arm and knife away with its big hand.

He only had time to let out a scream before another palm hit his head, causing his brain to burst immediately.

The spear-headed bear rushed forward quickly and pounced on Wei Feng, who ran wildly. Suddenly, a faint sword light flashed from behind the tree on the left, and a black knife silently struck his leg, causing blood to splatter immediately.

shoot.

When Jin Ziming saw Wei Feng crying and falling to the ground, he didn't dare to stop and ran away.

Unexpectedly, the monster did not go out of its way to kill the fallen person as he had imagined.

The gun-headed bear flew up and landed on Wei Feng with both feet, trampling him to pieces.

With the power of rebound, it jumped out and blocked Jin Ziming's way.

He understood that the only way to survive was to fight tooth and nail.

He dodged, slid to the side of the giant bear, raised his knife and slashed at its right leg. The spear-headed bear quickly raised its foot and kicked its opponent.

Unexpectedly, Jin Ziming used a feint. He rolled forward, slipped in front of the giant bear, and stabbed the bear diagonally with all his strength, thrusting it into the belly of the bear.

The bear demon's body was as hard as iron. The knife only penetrated a little, and Leng Yue pulled down to draw a shallow bloody mouth.

The giant bear was extremely angry and pounced on him with all his strength.

Jin Ziming ducked behind a tree, but heard a "bang" sound, and the giant bear broke the tree trunk, which was thicker than his thigh.

The fracture swept out and passed across Jin Ziming's left shoulder, suddenly opening a long wound.

Jin Ziming endured the pain and jumped to a nearby tree, kicked off his feet and bounced up, hitting the bear's right shoulder with a knife, opening another inconsequential wound.

The spear-headed bear roared wildly and pounced towards him. The strength gap between the two sides was too great. After several collisions, his right arm was shattered.

He had to switch to the new method of wielding the knife that he had figured out a few days ago. He tried to swing the knife from the shoulder to the waist, connecting the upper body, shoulders, arms and the knife in a line, and the torque and penetration were

There was an immediate increase.

With a "chi" sound, Leng Yue, who was stabbing upward, actually penetrated the right bear paw that was slapped hard.

The giant bear was furious and swung down his left palm with all his strength. Jin Ziming had no time to draw the knife and had to let go of Leng Yue, holding the bear's paw tightly with his right hand wearing a half-skin glove.

He had very little strength left. In desperation, he took out a long dull silver needle from his waist with his left hand. The needle also showed a strange dark red blood color.

His right hand suddenly relaxed, and the giant bear didn't take precautions and fell down.

Jin Ziming turned around with a kite, jumped over the giant bear, and pierced its left ear with a needle.

Suddenly, a stream of yellow gas overflowed from the bear's ears and was inhaled by the long needle. At the same time, his arms went numb and he felt a wisp of air rush into his head.

An extremely refreshing feeling fills my mind, as if my soul has been washed, and I feel like I have been enlightened by an immortal and suddenly enlightened from ignorance.

The original bloodthirst, embarrassment and excitement were suddenly emptied away, leaving only clarity.

I have never had such a detailed perception. Whether it is inside the body or the external world, everything is the same, but when I "see" it with my spiritual consciousness, it is different.

They are all so clear, as if they are right in front of you.

The abnormal reaction of the soul made Jin Ziming feel refreshed and inexplicably surprised.

Correspondingly, the fur of the giant bear instantly became dull to the naked eye, and this sting actually killed it on the spot.

Jin Ziming sat paralyzed on the ground. After breathing for a while, he stood up, drew his knife, dug a big hole next to the dead bear, took out a large and thin animal skin that he carried with him, and spread it over it.

Then, several incisions were made in the bear's large blood vessels, and several small grooves were made in the ground to guide the bear's blood into the pit.

He took off his clothes and lay down in it. When the bear's blood was gone, he silently recited the second level of the "Blood Tempering Technique" in his mind and began to exercise.

What Jin Ziming couldn't see was that some particles in the giant bear's blood were attracted to his skin, making it tougher, as if it was turning into iron skin.

There are also some particles that penetrate into the muscles and immediately disappear in the muscles, creating a tight feeling of inward contraction.

It even gave him a novel feeling, as if he had turned into a strong leopard in the forest. When he found prey, his muscles tensed up and he was about to burst out with amazing speed and power.

This continued for more than two hours. After a layer of black impurities and dirt were removed from the surface of the skin, I felt that my body no longer responded to the bear's blood, and then I stopped exercising.

When he got up, he saw that the wounds on his body had healed although there were still traces of them.

The pain in the fractured right arm also became vague, and after a long period of time without intensive body tempering, there was a significant improvement again.

The biggest gain today is that I finally discovered the function of this long needle.

He had tried many methods, stabbing wild beasts, stabbing himself, stabbing big trees, etc., and tried everything, but nothing happened.

Today, a stream of yellow gas was sucked out of the bear's ear. Does this mean that this injection is only effective against monsters?

Moreover, the air flow sucked out is very helpful to the mind and soul.

Jin Ziming took out the core of the demon bear and searched for useful objects from the two tattered corpses. He changed direction and fled to the outside.

A few hours later, he hid in a dense forest and began to think about his way out.

Silver needles may be able to drain the souls of low-level monsters instantly, but they are useless to humans.

This formed a strange circle. He might be able to deal with a first-level monster with a silver needle, but the enemy couldn't defeat the monster, and he had to be chased by a powerful enemy.

The only way to get rid of this situation completely is to become stronger yourself.

You have to use the resources at hand to strive to enter the introductory stage of cultivation in the dark forest: the real Qi refining period, so as to avoid future troubles forever.

In order to successfully refine Qi, you must first be able to feel the external spiritual energy, the second step is to absorb it and store it in the Dantian, and finally you need to understand the methods of transporting and using this spiritual energy.

The most fundamental difference between mortals and monks is whether they have spiritual roots, that is, whether they can successfully sense qi.

Sensitivity is a threshold that blocks the path of cultivation for ordinary mortals, leaving them without the opportunity to come into contact with another indescribable beauty in this world.

There were two things in the skin bag that Lao Jin gave him, a secret book called "Blood Refining and Body Tempering Technique" and the long dark silver needle that stabbed the bear demon to death.

When I was in the Longxiang Gang, the instructor taught me basic training theories, which included the method of meditation and breathing. In addition, there was a set of boxing techniques and a set of sword techniques, namely "Whip Hammer" and "Virtual and Real Whirlwind Knife".

He has been practicing meditation for three years, and by changing the foreign boxing into slow boxing, he has experienced the connection between the vague and non-existent Qi and thoughts.

But Jin Ziming knew in his heart that this sense of Qi was not produced by external spiritual energy, which troubled him very much. How did a monk successfully sense Qi for the first time?

Where is the Dantian three inches below the navel? What does it look like?

Jin Ziming found a cave with two exits and prepared to try his cultivation. He sealed the entrance of the cave and escaped through the other exit if the enemy invaded.

He decided to meditate deeply and become calm, allowing his brain to become ethereal and try to sense Qi, but unfortunately, he still failed to discover aura and Dantian.

However, in this state, he often hears some strange sounds.

Sometimes it's a woman's whisper, sometimes it's the roar of a monster, sometimes it's the sound of gurgling water, and so on.

In particular, the language that the woman spoke was obviously not the language of Hongqing Realm. I couldn't understand what she was talking about at all, as if she came from an outside world.

Right now, he is still extremely ignorant about spiritual practice.

He had no idea what kind of impact this special hearing ability would have on his future, and it was even more impossible to imagine that he would be involved in the horror of the endless starry sky.

Hu Lei and Ma Gan suddenly discovered that the boy had disappeared, but judging from the performance of the Wind Chaser they carried with them, he should still be in the forest, but it was difficult to detect the specific location for the time being.

"Boss, what should I do?" Ma Gan asked.

"You and I are both professional killers. How can we be more patient than a boy? Let's just fight him on the outskirts of this dark forest, and we will never leave until we get the treasure."

Jin Ziming drank from the mountain spring seeping out of the cave wall, ate the dried meat of wild beasts he brought with him, and occasionally slipped out to hunt.

The days of hard training passed day by day, and he transformed unknowingly.

One sunny day, he suddenly saw a large number of colorless bright spots floating in the sky, and he suddenly realized that this was spiritual energy.

He was so excited that he actually learned it without any teacher and found the door leading to cultivation.

Soon, no matter what the weather was, he could clearly see these spiritual energy particles filling the air, which were dense in some places and sparse in others.

When he catches cold or is injured, he can even see wisps of gray or black gas floating in front of him, and when he recovers, it turns into a healthy bright white.

Author's note: Some readers always ask, the protagonist is so powerful that he can kill a spear-headed bear with a silver needle, but the pursuers have to run away when they see the bear. Why can't the protagonist defeat the pursuers? I have to answer again and again, because silver needles are ineffective on humans.
